For practice, we meet at the track (no later than 3:45 p.m.) – dressed and ready to train, unless you hear otherwise from your coach. 

The duration of practice varies – it depends on the workout each day.  We are usually done sometime between 5:00 and 5:30.  You are expected to be at practice for the entire duration.

Only registered athletes and coaches are allowed at practice. Make sure to bring water and wear proper attire.

Before athletes can compete in a meet, they must attend 3 practices.

For all high school sports, practice and competing in meets is mandatory during the season.

According to the policy regarding practice in the Jeffco Athlete's Handbook:  Team members of all sports are required to attend all scheduled practices and meetings during the established sports season. If circumstances arise whereby the student cannot attend a practice or meeting, the validity of the reason will be adjudged by the individual coach. In all cases, however, the coach must be notified, prior to the practice or meeting missed, by personal contact, phone call, or written statement from the parent or guardian.

Physical

In order to compete in Track & Field, your athlete will need a current physical. Your physical is valid for one year from the date it is signed by your physician and must be uploaded to the registration site for EACH sport during the registration process during the year. For a smooth transition into the season, we highly recommend that you ensure you have a current physical prior to the start of your sports season. CHSAA requires a Pre-evaluation Physical Form be filled out. Page 4 of this document needs to be filled out and signed by your doctor and uploaded to your account. Don't forget to take it to your appointment. Detailed instructions are included on the form. Parent and athlete must also sign and date the bottom of the CHSAA form. See form for detailed instructions.

CHSAA 25-26 PHYSICAL FORM

Please follow the directions during registration regarding submission of your physical. DO NOT bring a hard copy to the office or email your physical to the office - you must upload it to your registration account.

Can't get into your doctor for a physical?  

You can visit the The Little Clinic at the King Soopers on Youngfield in Wheat Ridge.
